WHAT YOU WILL CROCHET

• A baby blanket made up of 9 different squares, each framed and then joined together.  The blanket has a detailed border which makes it a fun and colourful project to create.

FINISHED SIZE

• My blanket is 120 x 120 cm (47 ¼ x 47 ¼ inches) from edge of border to edge of border.

CROCHET SKILL

• Adventurous beginner/intermediate crocheter.

TERMINOLOGY

• US with metric sizes.

CAL INFORMATION

• This pattern is written for the advanced beginner/intermediate crocheter; however, the pattern has step-by-step instructions, over 300 clear tutorial photographs with helpful hints along the way, as well as pattern support.
• I will release the pattern preamble on the 17 October 2023, which includes the list of materials needed, yarn information, pattern notes, helpful tips, and abbreviations.
• After each part is released, you will need to update your Ravelry library to get the next part. Or you can download each part directly from my website when I release each part.
• The free pattern will be available to download from Ravelry and my website until the 22 December 2023, after that it will only be available to purchase from my online shops.

HOW TO ACCESS THE FREE CAL PATTERN

• Your Ravelry library will be updated as each part is released. The access your updates you need to be logged onto Ravelry, preferably via your PC, then update your library.  Although Ravelry does send out patter updates via email, these tend to end up in the spam folder.
• You will also be able to download each part separately from my website and I suggest that you download each part and save on an external device for safe keeping.
• The entire pattern, excluding the pattern preamble, will have a print friendly version.
• The links to the FREE CAL pattern will no longer be available from the 22 December 2023 so please make sure you have downloaded all 12 parts, together with the pattern preamble as I am not able to send individual parts to you.
